Re: Drunk Purchases

Must admit, I've used booze to Put My Big Boy Pants On and make big purchases, but those were purchases that I'd already decided to make and was just fear't of pulling the trigger on them. I don't think I've ever accidentally drunk-purchased anything in my life. Clearly I'm missing out on the surpr...

Interesting - I thought the 1.5m requirement was spacing between bike and vehicle.

Re: Drunk Purchases

Mrs mik will buy items after a few sherbets without checking dimensions. A few years back we took delivery of a "bargain" outdoor chair/table set that would probably suit 7 year old kids. It was like the Stonehenge scene in Spinal Tap.

Re: It’s time for another forum cycle/vehicle disagreement

That is appalling. For a team car to hit a competing rider due to inattention is unforgivable - sanctions ought to apply, something like excluding the team for a couple of races due to the severity of it. Sounds reasonable. They should surely also have a rule that anyone driving close to any of the...

Re: Where to get (decent quality) impact driver bits?

1. 1/4" bits wouldn't fit the end of the driver - the female end suit 5/16". 2. No idea. The beauty of the mechanical driver is that you turning it whilst driving the bit hard into the fixing - so you very rarely have any skipping issues. 1. Obviously - I was more thinking you need to mov...

Oops. That could have resulted in a significantly nastier outcome. :?

Re: Where to get (decent quality) impact driver bits?

1. If an electrical impact driver can copy with 1/4" bits, does the mechanical impact driver really need 5/16" bits or is that simply to withstand the smacking with a hammer? 2. Any idea what sort of torque you can achieve with a mechanical impact driver and how they compare? 3. ETA: Teng...
